    Firstly I haven't heard anyone claim Froch is an ATG, secondly neither is Ward.
    So don't really understand where he's coming from with that.

    Also Ward sounds very defensive in what he's saying regarding fighting away from home.. Was getting my hopes up that we might see him over here but sounds like he doesn't fancy it to me.

    He isn't an all time great, he is HOF material at 168 though.

    Ward is a top fighter and the best in the division without doubt. But if Froch is nothing and is his best win how does that sum up his career so far?!!

    Well he also beat Kessler, the man who beat Froch, including everyone else in the division bar Lucian Bute, who himself was stopped by Froch. So a very good career so far.

    Ward will have to travel soon enough as he is notva draw. Ward, unlike Froch is a great fighter he will come to the UK and simply do another job on him.

    Neither of them are all time greats. But a least Froch is out there fighting trying to prove himself against the best unlike Ward who is in his prime but is nearly ten months out of the ring and doesn't seem to have any fights scheduled in the near future.

    Are you sure Mr. Ward?

    Ward's purse against Dawson = £900k
    Froch's purse against Kessler = £2.5 million (178% more)
     
  12. It depends on what he wants.

    he can fight Froch in front of 6k in Oakland or Atlantic city or come to the UK where it might fill a football stadium or at very least the 18k O2 in London

    He ****ed things up by having Dawson come down to SMW.

    Andre has **** all options left but a fight with tomorrow's winner... AGAIN!

    Andre should have fought Bute and then faced Dawson at LHW.

    Ward dominated Froch the first time and the second time will be the same result . Bring on the rematch .

    I agree with some points, disagree with others but let's not fool ourselves here, it's all fight hype.

    I'm very certain who Ward wants to win at the weekend, put it that way.
